A while ago I’ve been nominated for the “Liebster”-Award (Favourite-Award) by Madame Flamusse, modified the challenge a little and answered three of her questions. Now it is my time to pass it on and ask three other bloggers to answer my three questions: And my questions are: 1. What has your knitting “career” be like so far and what is…

For my birthday last year I received a book from my friend by Arne & Carlos, which I wrote about on the blog. The book is called “Knitting Norwegian Style” where they present knitting projects inspired by old traditional Norwegian knits. A great book! I already wrote about it back in January. And I have also started on one of…

On Instagram I have been teasing my followers with a little mystery project. I just showed them the three colours (white, blue and light pink), said that this was for my boyfriend and had them guess what it was. There were some good guesses, but most of all I received wondering questions like “Pink? For a guy? What could that…

Madame Flamusse from Wollerausch nominated me for the “Favourite Award – discover new blogs”. Wow, thank you, I feel honoured! I must admit I’m not great with chain messages/posts, but as I enjoy to get to know new things about other bloggers and I’d like to promote and show some other blogs, I will of course participate. I will, however, shorten…

I will have to try to knit something with Tweed yarn soon. Very soon. For quite a while I’ve been sneaking around different Tweed yarn, but never had a suitable project at hand, if you know what I mean. But then this happened: I won a whole book with projects knit with Tweed yarn! Carina from Häkelmonster had put up…

The new year starts with a couple of new projects and some that I have had on the needles for quite a while: Dieses Jahr beginnt mit ein paar neuen Projekten, allerdings auch ein paar, die bereits seit einer Weile auf meinen Nadeln sind: Currently in progress / Gerade in Bearbeitung: The blue sweater is also still in the works.…

You know already that one of my New Year’s resolutions is to practice stranded colourwork. The other day I sat with Arne & Carlos’ book “Knitting Scandinavian Style” as they have plenty of stranded colourwork projects in the book and I have long been wanting to knit something from it. Then my boyfriend sat down next to me on the…

I’ll make it short. I’ve got two. New Year’s Resolutions, I mean. 1. Practice knitting stranded colourwork. My tension is still giving me trouble from time to time and I think only practice will help me here (I already have found my first project – more about that later). 2. Reduce my stash. I know, this was already my New…

One year ago I started this blog and probably did not tell anyone about it until 6 months afterwards. I just wasn’t sure whether I would be able to keep on writing, taking pictures or knit enough to have anything to write about at all. But I did. And I’ve done it for one year already. It feels a bit…
